The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued new guidelines for managed service providers (MSPs) to mitigate the risk of cyber threats to their client data. Threat actors are targeting MSPs more than ever and putting their clients at serious risk. To help MSPs create a more robust security posture, CISA recommends the following mitigations:
Our data shows that MSPs have become increasingly more vulnerable to threat actors-95% of MSPs state that their businesses are being increasingly targeted with attacks. The time has come for a more streamlined and strategic approach to protecting client's data. Using ad-hoc solutions invites more risk. Implementing a proven, reliable, and tested business continuity and disaster recovery business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) solution along with remote monitoring management capabilities can mean the difference between peace of mind and an impacted client.
